Is this the work of God or Allah to punish the muslims for the violence and terrorism in the world? Will there be more natural disasters in this area of the world to punish the muslims? Also, if Allah exists, why has he/she not protected the muslims from death? Especially in the last Tsunami (the big one) where thousands of muslims died.

You idiots. God and Allah are the same diety. It's like saying God and el Dios are different, one is the english God and one is the spanish one. Allah is just the arabic word ford God. So for you Christians or Jews or whatever that say Allah doesn't exist, you're saying that God (your own God since Muslims believe in the same God as you) doesn't exist. You might say it's not the same God but fact is, they say it is, therefore they are believing in the same God as you whether you like it or not.
And it doesn't matter who dies. Muslims aren't supposed to be afraid of death. Whatever happens is God's will, or so they say. So this could be a punishment for some, and the others could just be collateral dammage, so to speak.
So, was God or Allah trying to punish New Orleans for the horrible things going on in that city? Maybe God was tired for all the promiscuity and drunkenness during Mardi Gras, or the 14 year old girls having sex with grown men.
To the person who said the crescent moon: you are wrong. There is actually another reason behind it, and I will find the source to prove it later, I just have to go workout and get work done right now. I will be back later though if this is still open.

Well, if your question is whether God or Allah did it, well, both terms come from the God of Abraham, so they're technically the same person, right, even if the two sides of the world believe different things about Him..
Then the question as to whether it was a punishment. It's hard to say. There hasn't been any revelation to that respect that I know of, and I don't know enough about prophesies to say if it was predicted or not.

That can be a hard question to answer , since it can go both way's. if in fact it was an Earthquake..it could have been caused by nature and plate tectonics.
But then again someone will say that it was God that done it .The thing that pisses me off the most, is that why do people think God has to do with everything bad that happens?
In case people forgot, there is a Devil too that make things happen too. Even the Bible say's he or (Lucifer) was cast out of heaven, and was put on the earth.

Allah is impotent because she is a false god which originated with the pagan moon god.
Muhammed borrowed that god from the many pagan religions who worshipped the moon.
Why do you think the Muslims use the crescent moon in all their symbols for Allah?
Now you know!

I am not Muslim but i feel the same hurt and pain as you whenever innocent people die, irregardless of their religion or race.
And i believe strongly too we should all respect's each other God and help out each other, especially in difficult and sensitive times like this.
Do not doubt your God/Allah in times of troubled times. Hold on strong to your faith and your God/Allah. It is through troubled times, your faith in God/Allah is tested. God/Allah is forever forgiving and will never punish anyone by any means. Though God/Allah is all powerful and almighty, he did not promise us that life on earth is smooth-sailing or that he would protect us from all adversities and trials. But he did promise us that in times of doubt, there will be FAITH; in times of despair, there will be HOPE; in times of trouble, there will be CHARITY and in times of hate, there will be LOVE.
Through the last tsunami, all brothers on earth band together to help in whatever way we can. And this tsunami will be the same too!

God does everything to punish those and to bless those, Allah doesn't exist, that is why they haven't been protected, God is punishing them... but it is horrible to see so many people die, becuase most of them are lost... and they had so many chances before... but it's too late now.

This is like saying "if God loves me why do I have to die" At this point in my life I am not ready for death and prepared to die. HOWEVER who wants to spend FOREVER on Earth? Not me that is for sure.
I will be thankful when God decides to bring me home to him.
Yes it is sad for us here on Earth and us left behind by our loved ones to understand this. And to grasp the concept of why people are taken from us. But remember there are better places than here. And death-even tragic unexpected death-is not a bad thing.

I think God and Allah are the same Deity. (They are both God's of Abraham).
Its considered blasphemy to attempt to understand how/why God works. Besides, its not like you could know for sure.

God and Allah are imaginary concepts.
